Phil Robertson on Evangelism
The Duck Commander, Phil Robertson, star of A&E's Duck Dynasty, talks about evangelism. HERE

Poised to be the biggest cable show of all time, Duck Dynasty is the highest rated show on TV to consistently portray a family that is unapologetic about their Christian faith and their affection for one another. It is the first (and only) TV program to ever close in prayer. The pop culture phenomenon is making it harder for television executives to ignore the demand for shows that portray families who put God first in their lives.

The War Against Boys
One of the greatest challenges the church faces today is the mass exodus of boys (and men) from the church. Seventy to ninety percent of all boys will leave the church. Most won't come back. That exit is part of a larger cultural story about the war against boys. 

More and more boys are getting left behind as they lag significantly behind girls in many areas of education, economics, and career. In this new world of equality many boys are confused about their place in the world. As  result we're raising a generation of "lost boys," many of whom have no idea what it means to be a man in the church or in culture. Christina Hoff Sommers, Resident Scholar, American Enterprise Institute (AEI), gives us a clear, sobering picture of the culture's war on boys, particularly in our schools. READ MORE  
The "Hole" in Men's Ministry
There's a gaping hole in men's ministry few talk about. It's not about a lack of money, programs, strategies, techniques or marketing. It's a lack of understanding about Law and Gospel. Properly distinguishing between these two words in Scripture will help transform how we live out our faith and how we minister to men in Christian liberty. 

Tullian Tchividjian, grandson of Billy Graham and senior pastor at Coral Ridge Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale FL, sheds light on this critical topic in this recently published article in Christianity Today. HERE
The Keys to Developing Men
Our friend Dr. Pete Alwinson is a former senior pastor and currently Vice President of Leadership and Men's Discipleship at Key Life Network in Orlando FL. Pete believes men are foundational and that as go the men so goes everything else.

In this one-hour video interview, he talks about how he came to make developing and discipling men a central priority of his church. This will both challenge you and encourage you. Watch HERE. You can meet Pete at the NCMM  "ReLoad" Conference here in DC September 16-18.
